I have been out of the market for years. Are there any mountain and/or road bikes still made in the US? Looking to buy both eventually. Components that are designed to last more than a year would be a plus. When I used to ride, all of the pieces seemed to be designed to wear out.

Nothing is made here unless you want a custom titanium or steel frame. Components will last if you pony up for the race-level stuff, but like with anything, there are parts that are designed to wear out/have a finite product life cycle tied in with rider weight/style/abuse.

There is no way something could be made here, component-wise, and be price competive and affordable. Nothing beats Shimano XT or Ultegra(road), made in japan.
